Voice and video transmission using XTP and FDDIThe use of Xpress Transfer Protocol (XTP) and Fiber Distributed Data Interface (FDDI) provides a high speed and high performance network solution to multimedia transmission that requires high bandwidth. FDDI is an ANSI and ISO standard for a MAC and physical layer protocol that provides a signaling rate of 100 Mbits/sec and fault tolerance. XTP is a transport and network layer protocol designed for high performance and efficiency and is the heart of the SAFENET Lightweight Suite for systems that require performance or realtime communications. The testbed consists of several commercially available Intel based i486 PC's containing off-the-shelf FDDI cards, audio analog-digital converter cards, video interface cards, and XTP software. Unicast, multicast, and duplex audio transmission experiments have been performed using XTP software. Unicast and multicast video transmission is in progress. Several potential commercial applications are described.
